98 explorer build

so i have a 98 ford explorer xlt, im trying to lift it but cant seem to find what i want. i dont know where i can find a body lift for this. im not sure if a ranger body lift will work. if so id like to go with a 3inch body lift and 3 inch torsion lift and add a leaf. what size tires would also be good? i was thinking either 33" bf goodrich all terrains or maybe even 35s? tell me what yous think

Search around - your 98 Explorers are a dozen years old now, people have done plenty (including body lifts) to these vehicles.
